Why it is a great idea to play Cousins. If he performs at a high level, a team might do a little better than the Flynn episode and get a QB that would cost no more than a 2nd rounder (only Raiders would pay a 1st rounder....if they had one). Redskins stick with RG3 and get a little relief from losing a 1st rounder.

If Shanny sticks around for 2014, he gets that important pick and gets an unneeded offensive player because it was a B.A.P. in the draft. Then the circle is complete.

Thing is he doesn't want to move Cousins, he wants him to be full time starter.

I am sure that is the real reason but you really think that would happen? RG3 is there to stay. He is going through what Cam Newton happened last year. He will be back next year and doing well.

Why do people keep saying this lie. Cam's INT's from year one to year two went DOWN. RGIII more then doubled his total from the year before. Cam's QB rating went up from year one to year two. It didn't drop 20 points like RGIII. His rushing yards didn't drop in half like RGIII's did either. People are over playing Cam's year one to year two so they can try and feel better about how poorly RGIII has looked this year.

Which is smart, but Snyder wants to go RGIII all the way. If he's too dense to trust what his eyes show him, at that point it would best if Shanny got canned and then resurfaced with maybe even the team that will have traded for Cousins.

The theory is Griffin didn't have an offseason to work with the coaches or the skill players on O. Griffin didn't play in the preseason at all. Started game one with a knee brace on his plant foot.

There's some plausibility to the theory, but I do wonder how Griffin will look in the future since the read option isn't a long term success plan like it was in 2012.

Wrong. Rivera said before the season even began that he was the best thing they did all offseason.

Try again.

They made 3 staff changes and barely did anything in FA. The draft and the staff changes was all they did. 1/4 is the best move they made. Oh wow.

Also, he had already worked with Dorsey at IMG along with Weinke. So no, I don't buy that one season with a guy he already worked with who was a pro scout before all of a sudden awoke something in him that his previous QB coach and current OC did not.

Griffin should have sat for the first 4-6 weeks of the season. He tried to be Adrian Peterson and you can't do that as a QB who needs to run to open up the offense fully. The OL and WR corp is not good enough to hide you.
